Priceline Hotel: 2.5* College Station Hilton

[cmjesquire]

College Station only has 1*, 2* and 2.5* hotels.

Tried $40 for a 2.5*. Rejected.

Tried $43 for a 2.0*. Rejected.

Later tried $60 for 2.5* and got the Hilton.

Never been to CS before. Is there anything to do there other than build bonfires?

Thanks for the post.

It would be appreciated if you used the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

If you drive from your hotel towards the University on that road theres a bar district on the right across from the University called Northgate.

Northgate

If thats your sort of thing you can find beer/spirits and good bar food around there in abundance.

If you want a good meal the best restaurant for the price its also near Northate its called Cafe Eccell. The town is awash in chain restaurants but this is the place to go for a good meal at a decent price. In a big city for the quality the price would be 50% its quite good.

Cafe Eccell

Theres also downtown Bryan, a German guy is opening a huge German restaurant/Irish pub there. Might be open by the time you're in town, also theres some great hole in the wall Mexican restaurants down there. So if you want Tex-Mex thats the place to go.

La Salle

The LaSalle hotel is downtown, obviously not on Priceline. So its something to keep in mind if you go to B/CS again. Really though the rates for it are reasonable and its the place to stay in Bryan/College Station. If you click on the link it has the location of downtown Bryan on the map, and also what restaurants are downtown.
